SNOWED IN Citizens of Barrie and district are gradually digging themselves out following the worst snow storm in years, The fact that the wea- ther has turned mild and the snow very heavy, has made the task doubly difficult. With a thousand memhers of the Orange Order ex- pected early in the welk, Satur- day's market was expected to be a very large one, but it was the smallest in years, Only three farm- ers made their appearance, and these came from a comparatively short distance, Over the entire Georgian Bay district the snow is drifted even with the [ences in many places and what roads there are, are full of piteh holes, It will he many days before the highway to Toronto is open. A Provincial snow plow has heen stalled near Stroud, five miles south of Barrie, It is out of com- mission and will have to he towed to the nearest garage. A general merchant at Stroud yesterday phoned that what farmer customers he did have came across the fields on snowshoes, By a con- certed effort the streets of Barrie have heen cleared, except in the outskirts and auto traffic resumed.

"Sure you can spare the time?" "Sure. It wil do me good, too." "And you're mot asking me just 10 be nice--you really want me * "Don't you know by this time whether I want you or mot?" he returned, in a tone that brought the golor to her cheeks. 'Please come; "All right," she agreed, When they were seated in Mec Iver's roadster, she added, "I really can't deny myself 'he thrill ing triumph of taking 'a business man away from his work during office hours." "You take my thoughts away from my work a great many times during office hours, Helen," he re torted, as the car moved away. "Must [ wait much longer for my answer, dear?" She replied, Jim, not that to-day. think of it even," "All right," he returned, grim- ly. *I just want you to know, though, that I am waiting." "I know, Jim--and--and you are perfectly wonderful but-- Oh, can't we forget it just for an hour?" As if giving himself to her mood, Meclver's voice and manner changed. "Do you mind if we stop at the factory just a second? 1 want to leave some papers. Then we can go up the river drive." An hour later they were return- ing, and because it was the pretti- est street in that part of Mills- burgh, Mélver chose the way that would take them past the old house, John Ward's machine was stand- ing front of the Martin cottage. Mclver saw it and looked quick- ly at his companion, There was no need to ask if Helen had recog- nized her brother's car, The factory owner the new manager of the Mill a troublesome obstacle in his own plans for making war on the uni- ons, He felt, too, that with John now In control of the business, his chances of hringing about the com- bination of the two industries were materially lessened. He had won- hurriedly, "Please Let's not considered the Old House ROLD BELL WRIGHT, , too much not to go on mow, Jim. Do you mean that people are say- ing that John is amusing himself with Mary Martin?" "Well," he returned, cooly, "what else can the people think when they see him going there so often; when they see the two to- gether, wandering about the Flats; when they hear his car tearing down the streets late in the even- ing; when they see her every morning at the gate watching for him to pass.on his way to work? Your brother is not a saint, Helen. He is no different, in some ways from other men, I always did feel that there was something back of all this comrade stuff between him and Charlie Martin. As for the girl, T don't think you need to worry about her. She probably understands it alright enough, "Jim, you must uot say such things to me about Mary! She is not at all that kind of a girl, The whole thing is impossible." "What do you know about Mary?" he retorted. "I'll bet you have never even spoken to her since you moved from the old house." Helen did not speak after this until they were passing the great stone columns at the entrance to the Ward estate, then she said, quietly, "Jim do you always believe the worst possible things about ev ery one?" "That's an odd thing for you to ask," he returned, doubtfully, as they drove slowly up the long cure ving driveway. "Why?" "Because," she answered, "it sometimes seems to me as if no one believed the best things about people these days, I know there is a world of wickedness among us, Jim, but are we all going wholly to the bad together?" McIver laughed. 'We are all alike In one thing, Helen, No mat- ter what he professes, you will find that at the last every man holds to the good old law of 'look out for number one.! Business or pleasure, it's all the same. A man looks after his own interests first and takes what he wants, or can get, when and where and how he can." "But, Jim, the war ft He laughed cynically, "The warp dered, at times, if it was not her brother's Snfluence that caused Helen to put off glving him her final answer to his suit, £ When he saw that Helen had recognized John's car, he remark- ed, with an insinuating laugh, "Ev- idently I am not the only business man who can be lured from his office during working hours." *Jim, how can you?" ghe pro- tested, "You know John is there on business to see Charl'e or his father," "It is a full hour yet before quitting time 'at the Mill," he re- turned, She had no reply the man continued sith a touch of malicious satisfaction, "After all, Helen, John is human, you know, and old Pete Martin's daughter is a mighty attractive girl," Helen Ward's cheeks were red, but she managed to control her voice, as she said, "Just what do yon mean by that, Jim *Is it possible that you really do not know?" he countered. "I know that my brother, fool- ish as he may be about some things, would never think of pay- ing serious attention to the daugh- ter of one of his employees," she retorted, warmly. "That is exactly the situation," he returned. *No one believes for a moment that the affair is serious on John's part." The color was gone from Helen's fuce now. "1 think you have said to this, and wae pure selfishness from start to finish, We fed the fool public a lot of patriotic bunk, of course--,, we nad to we peeded them, And tbe dear people fell for the sentimental hero business as they always do," With the last word he stopped the car in front of the louse, When Helen was on the ground she turned and faced him squarely, "Jim Mclver, your words are an in- sult to my brother and to ninety- nine out of every hundred men who served under our flag, and you insult my intelligencr if you expect me to accept them in earn- est, If I thought for a minute that you were capable of really bellev: ing such thoroughly abominable stuff I would never speak to you sgain, Good-bye, Jim, Thank you 80 much for the ride." Before the man could answer, she ran up the steps and disappear- ed through the front door. But Mclver's. car was po more than past the entrance when Helen appeared again o nthe poreh, For a moment she stood, as if debating some question in her mind. Then apparently, she reached a decision. Ten minutes later she was walk- ing burriedly down the hill road-- the way Bobby and Maggie had fled that day when Adam Ward drove them from. the iron fence that guarded his estate, It was scarcely a mile by this road to the old bouse and the Martin cottage.

CLAIMS MEN PREFER BRUNETTES FOR WIVES I -- New York, March 11. -- It's all a mistake about gentlemen preferring blondes! Anita Loos herself says so. The authoress of "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes make an important modification to that dogmatic title in an interview with Dorothy Holm, published in Smart Set Magazine for April. She still holds it true that the male element will pick blondes for play- mates and brunettes for wives. But that is only because the physical quality gentlemen really prefer is something Tarely found nowadays-- good, old-fashioned, full-blooming curves, "The flat-chested, hipless figure that now passes for 'the form of a woman is anathema to the average man. © A clothes rack intrigues him just as much," so asserts Miss Loos in a broadside that sweeps her whole modish sisterhood, The flat, thin, modish figure sought by girls today is woman's own crea- tion, she opines. Women seek slen- derness to inspire the envy of other women and take no cognizance what- ever of gentlemen's preferences, says Miss Loos. "But there is more to the loss of feminine curves than physical ap- al. When a woman changes her gure, she changes her disposition and her outlook on life, When she gives up her curves she gives up as well the feminine qualities gentle- men love in women."
